Ans as Rangers now leave Celtic Park to lick their wounds, Kris Boyd, levied some strong criticism towards his old team after watching their performance in the 3-0 defeat.
“None of them would get anywhere near it. Go and show a two-minute clip of why Celtic totally dominated that game today and it was summed up within two minutes.
“James Tavernier laboured back when he lost the ball in the middle of the pitch and Kyogo ran the full length of the pitch to tackle Tom Lawrence. That’s the difference.
There is no denying it, Celtic are miles ahead of Rangers both on and off the park. The business model the club has allows huge investment in the team as proved by the summer transfer window.
Celtic strengthened their first-team squad with no less than seven players this summer spending big money on the likes of Arne Engels, Adam Idah and Auston Trusty.
And whilst Kasper Schmeichel was the only new summer signing to start today’s game, the strength Celtic have in-depth looks like it will keep them out of reach of their rivals for some time yet.
It’s little wonder Chris Sutton said he is worried about Rangers because you could see them losing heart as soon as Celtic started getting a foothold in the game after the opening goal.
With one game left until the international break, the pressure is all on Philippe Clement’s side as Celtic now sit clear at the top of the table.
